South Central Cancer Resource (SCCR) is pleased to announce that everyone’s favorite week – Smile Cookie Week is back and taking place April 29 to May 5.
“We at SCCR are incredibly thankful that Tim Horton’s owners, Jeff and Linda Doerksen, have chosen our organization for the third time to receive the proceeds from the Smile Cookies sold at their Carman location,” said SCCR board member Jack Pethybridge.
SCCR provides service and support to individuals and their families undergoing a cancer journey throughout the South Central Region. As SCCR is not government funded, initiatives such as Smile Cookie week are significant to our organization. Allowing the community to support our organization in a fun, easy way.
Last year, a total of 4,578 Smile Cookies were sold at the Carman Tim Horton’s Restaurant. SCCR receives the full amount from every Smile Cookie sold at the Carman store, each cookie is $1.50. This year, the goal is to sell 6,000 cookies.
For this year’s Smile Cookie week, SCCR is looking for businesses in the Carman area to sign up to “Cookie Match” the daily Smile Cookie sales to raise even more money for South Central Cancer Resource.
For example: if you choose to “Cookie-Match” for May 3 and 400 cookies total are sold that day, businesses that have signed for that day would donate $600. Another option is to sign up for a day and to set a cap on donations. Example: You could sign up for May 2 and match cookie sales up to a max of 500 cookies for that day, so if they reach over 500 cookie sales you would donate $750.
Businesses who sign up to be “Cookie-Match” sponsors for Smile Cookie week at the Carman Tim Hortons will receive recognition on the South Central Cancer Resource website as well as their Instagram and Facebook Page. Donation receipts will also be provided to businesses for the full amount donated.
Alternatively, Smile Cookies for a workplace to enjoy can be pre- ordered with deliveries in Carman available!
Smile Cookie week is April 29 – May 5 this year.
Anyone interested in “Cookie Matching” sales or to pre-order cookies please contact SCCR Board Member, Jack Pethybridge at 204-750-8140.
“Your support is so greatly appreciated and goes a long way to help SCCR offer their services to members of our community. This is a fun way to treat your employees and co-workers while supporting our organization! SCCR is so thankful and grateful for the continued support from our local community and Tim Hortons,” said Pethyridge.
